Operation

If you are familiar with the structure of the settings in DIGSI 5 and on-site operation, you can navigate through
the same structure (for example function groups, function blocks, and the diagram on the on-site operation
panel) using the browser-based user interface.
The PC that you wish to use to operate the SIPROTEC 5 device must be connected to the device via a network
cable. The PC and the SIPROTEC 5 device must be switched on.
Before you operate the device using a Web browser, you first have to check the security settings. With the
security settings, you restrict the access rights for Web access (Port J and Ethernet communication module).
You can define the security settings in DIGSI in the project tree under Security → Network access security.
You can assign the following access rights:
•
No access:
This interface does not allow access to the device.
•
Read-only access:
This interface only allows read access to the device.
•
Read/write access (default setting):
This interface allows read and write access to the device.
To operate the device via the browser-based user interface, proceed as follows:
•
Connect the SIPROTEC 5 device (for example Port J) to your PC using a network cable.
